The Love of My Life

Kristin. 
For a very long time, 6 years at that, I have loved you with the utmost love. A love I didn't know that even existed by my own understanding. You have opened my eyes in such a way that brought such a breath of fresh air into my life. The clarity and understanding in how I loved you was like nothing I have ever experienced. It was a love that made me sing, a love that made me do things I would never have done before.  You are the tangible understanding I have of unconditional love. 

Ever since I saw you, I couldn't look away. I said to myself, "how can I ever love another?"  You radiated a beauty and light that was unexplainable. You carried a sort of beauty that I had searched for all my life. A beauty that I knew was safe, a beauty that I knew was whole, a beauty that is only God given.  You had no fault inside. You were seriously like a drink of cool water to my heart. You made me understand that everything in life is ok. That it really is true how God is good. That this life was intended for Gods ultimate glory, and the anticipation of His glory being revealed overtook me. This is what I saw when I first met you. 

As I have continued to get to know you, you continue to put me in a trance. I am held in awe of your beauty. Captive by the flutters I feel in my heart. An overwhelming sense of completeness has weaved itself within me. I am intertwined with you. When The Lord knit me in my mothers womb, and as he knit you in your mothers womb, he left certain strands loose which He has now bound together, and woven through my heart strings.  There is nothing that can ever separate us from the love of Christ, and in turn, nothing that can separate us from our love for each other .  His same way of binding himself to us, is the way he has chosen to bind you and I together, completing the woven product He started. 
I will continue to bless you, as The Lord has blessed me. I will continue to love you, as Christ has loved me, without pause or consideration, as Christ loves the church. 

This is my heart. 
This is what I know.
You are beautiful. 
You are my love, 
and I love you.
